Sorry for answering questions, but ...

What is THE MEANING of "Ready for IBM Technology"?
Is MAI Logic products ready for AIX, one of IBM's Technology?

The IBM Technology MAI Logic products is ready for, is IBM PowerPC processors!!!

There are 3 different "Ready for IBM Technology" solutions ... have a look http://www-3.ibm.com/chips/solutions/rfit/ ... and AIX is not one of them!!!

Here you can see that the "Articia S Chipset", "Teron CX" and "Teron PX" is ready for IBM PowerPC processors!

You can also just take a look at the website of MAI Logic ... look at the "Ready for IBM Technology" thing ... look a bit south ;-)

PowerPC microprocessor

:-D

@ The_Editor

The South bridge for KT400 is the VT8235

Jep ;-)

Your welcome :-)

But I think one problem might be the 8X V-link (looks like it is the link between North and South) have a look at the KT400 page  :-?

@Kronos

Do you believe it is better to use the VT8231 used in the Pegasos??? I do not!!!

@Kronos

As far as I remember (from IA32), the VT8231 has/had at least a voltage problem, and has/had the same DMA problems, as the VT82C686B is told to have.
